So he's unable to get off his shot, but he's in the top-10 in Shots? And your reasoning for that is because he just doesn't do it for you?

I can point to many moments where I shook my head at Gretzky for making too soft a play.
I can point to many moments where I shook my head at Messier for making too rough a play
I can point to many moments where I shook my head at Richter for being too aggressive in net.
I can point to many moments where I shook my head at Lundqvist for being too passive in net.

As mentioned, if Gaborik couldn't handle physical contact, he would have never made it in this league.

When he does score, do you pout or cheer? Just curious . . . . .
